N++ International Update!
Good news! Now, you can play N++ in a multitude of languages including English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Korean, Chinese and Japanese. Hooray! There are a bunch of small improvements and a refresh for Mac in this update as well.

As you may know, N++ has over 1000 hours of gameplay goodness, plus a level editor, which means you could play literally forever, developing your ninja skills and getting better and better every day. Perfect for self-isolating! ;)

But did you know it's even more awesome with more than one ninja?! It's true! Try teaming up with a friend using Remote Play Together to play Solo, Co-op or Competitive MP. Hundreds of hours of multiplayer goodness awaits.

We hope that this update introduces N++ to a new audience around the world, and that the game brings a little joy to all of you, especially in these challenging times. Stay safe out there, all you ninjas! 

By the way, we thought it couldn't be done, but N++ has now been 100%'d by an incredible EIGHT (8) intrepid ninjas! Congratulations, all, that's an amazing achievement. If you've suddenly got some extra time on your hands, why not aim to be #9? 

If you do succeed at 100%ing the game, or just want a chill place to hang out, connect with the awesome N++ community on our discord server here: https://discord.gg/umGncGh

N++ Ultimate Edition

Ultimate Edition Update!

At long last, N++ Ultimate Edition is here! Now there's even more to love about N++ :)
It's a free update for anyone who owns the game; we went back and forth on whether or not to charge for this DLC, and decided that we really wanted to encourage more people to try N++, and that this might be a great way to do it!

This update contains a ton of new content, doubling the number of levels, colour schemes, and ninja headbands.
It's like an entire second N++, for free! It really is a game that could last a lifetime.

There's also a brand new singleplayer game mode called Hardcore.
Hardcore was designed for fans and especially highscore competitions -- in contrast to the regular Solo mode, in Hardcore the clock is always ticking and every death counts.
This transforms N++ into the ultimate skill-based challenge, adding another echelon to strive for in your quest for ninja glory.

Enjoy!

Happy Valentine's Day!


Happy Valentine's Day! During February, sink your teeth into two delicious new, special colour schemes: Chococherry and Birthday Cake. Hooray! More details here: http://www.metanetsoftware.com/2017/joyeux-saint-valentin

Crashes and Corruption Fixes
This is a minor update to fix a not-so-minor issue: people were reporting their save games being corrupted when tracking/untracking and following/unfollowing levels while playing them.
There was also a pretty common issue with some graphics cards that people were having with launching the game that we managed to track down.
So here's an update that fixes all that!

Stacking sounds update
We're hard at work on Ultimate Edition and haven't had a lot of time to work on some of the bugs that have been reported recently, but the 'sounds getting cut off' one was really annoying so we've fixed it.
Also, a few of the levels have updated to make secret challenges possible.

N++ crashfix update
Some people were experiencing just a ridiculous amount of crashes when trying to play user levels after the Steamcloud update.
It took a while to reproduce and then get to the bottom of these issues, so sorry for the delay but here's a version that shouldn't crash so damn much!

P.S. Also that final headband is actually obtainable now!
